ABOUT...

A Summer in 1993 in Spanish Harlem finally reveals the secret past of Cuban-American cardiac nurse Negra Centron. A childhood secret torments the life and stifles the growth of a beautiful woman.

This film will get done relying on my grind for pennies, and a little help from my friends. But it may take longer than necessary since shoot days will only happen when funds are available. In other words, instead of having only 2 shoot days a month, we can have 10. That makes a big difference in how soon we get the film on the big screen. So, if more could contribute to the pot this film can wrap a lot sooner!
